Timchat2 Posted October 11, 2023 Share Posted October 11, 2023 It will be interesting to see how the offerings might be arranged this year for any budget cuts. If nothing else Sounds of the Nativity (assuming it returns) will need a different setup with the Camp Snoopy construction. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regardless, it will probably need a new venue even after Camp Snoopy construction considering the play structure that's being built. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
super7 Posted October 11, 2023 Share Posted October 11, 2023 They need to separate the vocalists and the animals. For BOTH of their sakes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timchat2 Posted October 12, 2023 Share Posted October 12, 2023 If it does return this year they might be set up like it is at Kings Dominion and Carowinds with a temporary outdoor stage and enclosures for the animals. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What if that meant Winterfest started two weeks later? Would that be a crowd pleaser? Would it be worth the investment for a shorter duration? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually this serves two purposes. It gives them a head start on decorating AND serves as great advertisement for Winterfest. I'm all for it. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not a fan of lights on formed frames. I prefer them in the trees and in the buildings. they are not going to do this because of the labor cost but imagine the train ride with lights in the high trees….. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At a certain water park across the street, you were able to do just that. And if I remember correctly, said slides were relics from Surf Cincinnati. This was a long time ago. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was a long time ago. @BoddaH1994 would know better than me, but I’m pretty sure only one former Surf Cincinnati slide got used and that was circa 2006 for their weird and definitely questionable “toboggan” attraction that Boddah, @Dane, and I wrecked on. I don’t think they ever brought that back. The “tubing” they had in later years was just a giant dirt pile in the parking lot and the slides sitting in pieces out there were from… Columbus’ old zoo waterpark thing? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fairly certain those two slides in your video came from Surf Cincinnati. In 2006, they let @Dane and I take our pick of sleds (out of a pile where we had to decide “which one is less broken”)—and then they let us ride together. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
